With an estimated global incidence of 11 million patients per year, research involving ischemic stroke requires the collection and analysis of massive data sets affected by innumerable variables. Landmark studies that have historically shaped the foundation of our understanding of ischemic stroke and the development of management protocols have been derived from only a miniscule fraction of a percent of the entire population due to feasibility and capability. Machine learning provides an opportunity to capture data from an extraordinarily larger cohort size, which can be applied to training models to formulate algorithms to forecast outcomes with unparalleled accuracy and efficiency. The par...
In this issue of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Clinics, guest editors Drs. John Conklin and Michael Lev bring their considerable expertise to the topic of MR in the Emergency Room.

Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews.
This two-volume set LNCS 11383 and 11384 constitutes revised selected papers from the 4th International MICCAI Brainlesion Workshop, BrainLes 2018, as well as the International Multimodal Brain Tumor Segmentation, BraTS, Ischemic Stroke Lesion Segmentation, ISLES, MR Brain Image Segmentation, MRBrainS18, Computational Precision Medicine, CPM, and Stroke Workshop on Imaging and Treatment Challenges, SWITCH, which were held jointly at the Medical Image Computing for Computer Assisted Intervention Conference, MICCAI, in Granada, Spain, in September 2018. The 92 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 95 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: brain lesion image analysis; brain tumor image segmentation; ischemic stroke lesion image segmentation; grand challenge on MR brain segmentation; computational precision medicine; stroke workshop on imaging and treatment challenges.
Perhaps no artery in the human body bears as much importance to bodily functions and life as the basilar artery, by virtue of the anatomical territories it serves. This is due to the critical nature of the physiological functions supported by the brainstem, the nearby cerebellum and cerebrum, and the severity of most pathological conditions known to affect this artery, and the risk involved in treating those conditions. This book is a comprehensive resource of knowledge on the anatomical, radiological, developmental, clinical, and technical aspects relevant to the diagnosis and treatment of basilar artery diseases.Until now, no single book has been available as a wide-ranging resource of cli...

“Methods of Clinical Epidemiology” serves as a text on methods useful to clinical researchers. It provides a clear introduction to the common research methodology specific to clinical research for both students and researchers. This book sets out to fill the gap left by texts that concentrate on public health epidemiology and focuses on what is not covered well in such texts. The four sections cover methods that have not previously been brought together in one text and serves as a second level textbook of clinical epidemiology methodology. This book will be of use to postgraduate students in clinical epidemiology as well as clinical researchers at the start of their careers.
